CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY IN Saudi Arabia has been acceleratingwhile most of the rest of the world has slowed down. With growthestimated at 6-7 per cent last year (it stalled in 2009) and theworld’s second largest current account balance, Saudi Arabia iscertainly a country which is going places fast. And since WTOmembership was finally achieved at the end of 2005, the energy-dominated economy has been diversifying even faster; now it is amajor supplier of a wide range of industrial merchandise to otherGCC countries in particular. It all adds up to the Gulf’s largestsingle construction market by far, fuelled by central governmentschemes such as the Economic Cities programme (including KingAbdullah and Jazan ECs, both pencilled in at US$27 billion, alongwith mega-industrials such as the NOC’s Yanbu Export RefineryProject, to cost US$10 billion), and major infrastructure schemesdesigned to boost power generation and water supplies and thetelecoms facilities needed to knit it all together. Two forthcomingbuilding events in the Kingdom, both covered in this issue – Big 5and Buildex – will reflect the available opportunities in SaudiArabia.At Technical Review we always welcome readers comments to [email protected]

THE EU HAS agreed to provide financialassistance to Jordan with a packageworth US$4 billion over the next threeyears, of which US$1.6 billion will beavailable in the coming 12 months.EU High Representative for ForeignAffairs and Security Policy and VicePresident of the European CommissionCatherine Ashton made theannouncement with Prime Minister AwnKhasawneh at the end of the Jordan-EUTask Force meeting held in Jordan.Khasawneh said the meeting had been

“successful in tackling frameworks ofcooperation and support that can beprovided by the EU to Jordan's politicaland economic reforms.”"The meeting sessions were very fruitfuland we briefed our European partners onthe economic challenges and legislativechanges that have started" Khasawnehadded.Expanding on what the assistancepackage entailed, Ashton said the EUwill make available an additional amountof US$92.4mn in line with the Principles

of the Communication of March 2011,making US$40mn available immediately.She added that the EU support will focuson a limited number of priorities withparticular emphasis on good governanceand economic growth."The European Investment Bank iscurrently working on an extensivepipeline of already identified newprojects with an estimated lendingactivities of up to 400 million euros overthe next two years," Ashton said.She added that: "Jordan will also beeligible for the European Bank forReconstruction and Development'sinvestment [that is] expected to build upover two-three years to an annual volumeof around US$396mn depending on theneeds and opportunities given." On the sidelines of the press conference,the two sides signed US$19.8mn andUS$6.6mn agreements, under which theEU will fund the second phases of thereinforcement of modernisation of theservices, technology and innovationsectors.Both sides also agreed to launch adialogue on economic reforms to enhancecompetitiveness, including such key areasas attracting inward investments, boostinginnovation and encouraging businessstart-ups, and expanding small andmedium enterprises.

IT SPENDING BY the government sector in Middle East and Africa (MEA) will increase by 15.1 per centyear on year in 2012 to reach US$7.41 billion, according to the global market research and consultingcompany IDC's 2012 predictions"The MEA region is highly diverse, comprising countries of different sizes and economic diversity, atvarious stages of development, and with dissimilar political and regulatory structures.Understandably, the IT spending maturity of countries within the oil-rich Arabian Peninsula variesgreatly from that of developing African nations," said Mukesh Chulani, senior analyst at IDCGovernment Insights MEA. He expects that government CIOs across the region will seriously seek toevolve their approach towards IT investments in 2012 by emphasising efficiency and cost-optimisedcapacity buildout. "Tactically, this will mean a greater push by government IT decision makers to standardiseapplications and services within their organisations, evaluate various outsourcing solutions, andinvest into IT 'game changers' – such as virtualisation, cloud, and mobility solutions – in order tohelp manage IT costs while providing better services to stakeholders," Chulani added.

IDC provided a number of predictions for governmentsector IT investments and initiatives in Middle Eastand Africa in 2012. IDC predicted that due to public-sector financing gaps, the private sector will play agreater role in infrastructure investments. While,virtualisation will be at the forefront of governments'planned IT projects. IDC added that governments willcontinue to evaluate the applicability of cloudcomputing, with interest initially focused on privatecloud solutions and governments will take a muchmore serious approach to IT security.

The Middle East is a key strategichub for CESI due to its dramatic expansion into the transmission/distribution, smart grids andrenewable energy sectors, and we are looking forward to sharing our deep knowledge andexperience to benefit this market.”

Gianluca Marini, Director of Consulting, Solutions and Services Division at CESI, said: “The MiddleEast region is an attractive market, with a stable economic environment, significant growth rates and

a receptive approach towards new business initiatives. TheEngineering & Technical Consulting services market in theelectricity sector is expected to grow rapidly in the comingyears, particularly in the innovative fields of smart metering &smart grids and electrical interconnections (in particular HVDC),and we look forward to playing a part in this."

INTERNATIONAL RATING AGENCY Standard & Poor (S&P) hasstated that Lebanon’s economic growth faces challenges that will“constrain growth and hinder fiscal consolidation.” Furthermore,Lebanon’s ratings are constrained by the country's high publicdebt burden, large current account imbalances, and the divisivepolitical environment. S&P still maintained a stable outlook for the country. “The stableoutlook reflects our view that the rising resident and nonresidentdeposit base will continue to support the government'sfinancing needs. It also takes into account our expectation thattourism and foreign direct investment will rebound once theregion stabilises, although we do not consider this likely beforenext year,” S&P said in its report.

S&P argued that Lebanon has maintained a greater degree ofstability than a number of its neighbors in the Middle East andNorth Africa (MENA) region but it has not been immune from thepolitical and economic turmoil in the region. “In particular, thegrowing instability in Syria, and the uncertainty caused by theLebanon's extended political transition during the first half of2011, have depressed investment,” the report added.S&P does not expect growth to reach pre-2011 levels in themedium term. The rating agency estimates that GDP growthreached 1.5 per cent in 2011, after an average of 8.2 per centbetween 2007-2010. The agency expects real GDP growth torecover to 3.5 per cent in 2012, rising to 5 per cent by 2014,supported by a recovery in tourism and levels of investment.

OFFICIAL FIGURES SHOW that Kuwait'sbudgetsurplus widened to US$47.6 billion in the firstnine months of its 2011-12 fiscal year, nearlydouble its level a year-ago due to higher thanexpected oil income and lower spending.Central bank data showed that the surplusaccounted for 37 per cent of the OPEC’smember's 2010 gross domestic product (GDP).It stood at US$25.2 billion in the same period ayear ago.Revenues were US$77 billion in April-December, while spending was US$29.8billion, a mere 42.5 per cent of the full-yearplan, the data posted on the central bank'swebsite showed. Kuwait's budget spending has tripled since2004, with a record US$69.8 billion planned forfiscal year 2011-12, which started in April,fuelled in part by rising wage costs.Kuwait also boosted social spending in 2011,including cash grants and free food rations forits citizens, following a trend seen around theGulf as unrest swept through the Middle East.Last year, Kuwait’s parliament agreed a US$110billion development plan which aimed todiversify the country’s economy away from oiland boost the private sector, but so far little of

this allocated money has been spent so far,partly due to political wranglings. Following Feburary's parliamentary elections,ratings agency Fitch warned that ongoing'friction' within Kuwait's government wouldcontinue to weigh on reforms and hinderpolitical effectiveness.The country of 3.6mn people has no plans toboost budget spending in the next fiscal year,nor does it expect budget cuts, its financeminister said towards the end of last yearOil revenue reached US$73 billion in April-December, accounting for 95 per cent of thetotal, the data showed. The 2011-12 budget isbased on an oil price of US$60 per barrel.

NNAFFCO FLOW CONTROL is asubsidiary of the NAFFCOgroup of companies andspecialises in the supply of

infrastructure & electromechanicalproducts for water line, HVAC and firefighting applications. This includessteel pipes and fittings, HDPE pipingsystems, valves and ventilation fans.

Mr Sbinati explained how Naffco FlowControl has, right from its inceptionestablished a growing presence in HVACoperations catering for piping systems,chilled water & plumbing valves and afull range of ventilation systems.

The shift from the supply of justpiping systems for fire-fighting to otherareas like valves and fans and theincrease in the range of piping systemsto include DI and HDPE came at a time

when other business were holding backdue to economic uncertainties.

Sbinati proudly stated “It was due to thevision and direction of our CEO,Eng.Khalid Al Khatib that we were able totake this bold step.” The benefits of thisdecision are now beginning to be seen.

Having established businessconnections with several large Europeancompanies with vast product ranges andconsiderable technical know-how, itwas pleasing to see these relationshipsproducing positive results. Both histeam and his clients have benefitedthrough their explicit knowledge andexperience in the field and theinvolvement in most cases extends rightup to the commissioning stage.

Sbinati explained how the entireproduct range has all local and

international approvals. As a matter offact, HDPE Pipes and Fittings uniquelyhave FM approval for the entire range ofSDR 7.4, SDR 9 & SDR 11 products. Thisis a key factor in standing out from thecompetition.

He was also quick to point out thatthey not only supply quality productsbut also provide comprehensivesolutions. With a wide range of pipesavailable for above and below groundfire/water and gas applicationstogether with the supply of all types ofvalves and welding machines, NaffcoFlow Control can compliment this withthe provision of site technicians,offering a complete service to itsvaluable clients. For ventilationsystems, it also provides designs,assists in selection and offers tailor-made solutions. The range includes alltypes of smoke extract fans and jet fansall with Civil Defence approvals.

Another attraction is the ESP(Electrostatic Prescipitator) for kitchensmoke extraction.

Market reachNaffco Flow Control is currently theexclusive agent for Cimberio HVACValves in the UAE, Qatar and SaudiArabia and the agent of Elektroventventilation systems in the UAE. Thecompany also plans to extend sales forall product lines to other Gulf countriessuch as Oman, Bahrain & Kuwait.

Beyond the Gulf, it is undertakingmarket studies in Africa andneighbouring regions, with a view tobeginning operations there oncemarketing plans are in place.

BrandsOne of the main attractions of NaffcoFlow Control is that it works withleading international brands that arewell established and seen as experts intheir field.

The division represents majorcompanies such as: Shield and GPS inthe UK ; Cimberio, Ritmo and Elektroventin Italy ; PHD from the US and Surya fromIndia.

Sbinati explained that: “We’re actuallythe exclusive agent in the region for anumber of these brands. Italiancompany Cimberio for example has a 50year history and a strong reputation forproducing high quality valves tointernational standards.”

“They have recently launched aninnovative valve designed to performtwo different functions – regulation andcontrol. This unique feature helps

reduce costs, balance operations, saveenergy and improve environmentalcontrol. These, along with many of theirother valves, embrace green technology,reducing water and electricityconsumption and result in being aneconomical, time efficient option toclients and end users.”

WWHAT COMES TO mind whenyou think about cloudsecurity? Do you think aboutapplication security or

protecting corporate data? Perhaps youfear virus or phishing attacks? For the pastseveral years, cloud security has been oneof the biggest concerns among IT decisionmakers as they consider how best totransition applications and data out of thecorporate data center and into the cloud.The real question is one of perceptionversus reality.

Steve Bailey, Regional OperationsDirector at CommVault Systems says that aperceived lack of cloud security cansometimes stop an IT organization dead inits tracks when they look at the cloud as an

option for data storage. Many industries,like healthcare and financial services,have always been held to a higherstandard than other organizations when itcomes to regulatory compliance and dataretention, which prevents them fromtaking a “risk” on the cloud. Thisunjustified fear of lax cloud security alsomeans they lose out on all of the business,cost and operational benefits that cancome with storing data in the cloud.

A low cost tier of storage

There are many aspects to securing

data in the cloud

Economic benefitsThe reality is that all of the pieces are inplace to enable secure and compliantcloud-based storage environments, andthe technology is sound. It’s time that ITorganizations rethink their position oncloud security by looking at the facts.

The economic benefits that come withstoring data in the cloud are too great toignore for any IT organization strugglingwith data management. Because cloudstorage providers leverage multi-tenantarchitectures, infrastructure costs areshared across many users. This helpslower costs substantially versus on-sitesolutions, which require additionalprovisioning, power, cooling costs, andmore.

As data volumes continue to increase,many companies find themselves pushingthe capacity, cooling and powerlimitations of their existing data centers.

AttractiveMeanwhile, regulations require manybusinesses to keep ever-growing amountsof data for compliance purposes. Thisthree-way balancing act between capacity,compliance and cost requires a flexible,multi-tier approach that makes cloudstorage an attractive alternative.

While many organizations benefit todayfrom keeping online, deduplicated datacopies available for fast recovery, massivegrowth will still require more disk and tapeto contain exploding amounts of data.Cloud storage offers a low-cost tier ofstorage that enables several newcompliance, disaster recovery, and databackup solutions. More readily availablethan offline vaulted data, cloud-based

storage delivers these key use cases tohelp solve today’s data managementproblems, including:■ Tiering data retention to cloud storage,

alleviates the need to expand datacenter capacity or operational costs

■ Archiving stale data to cloud-basedstorage to free up existing space withinthe data center

■ Cost-effective Disaster Recovery forSmall-and-Medium Enterprises withoutlarge upfront and operationalinvestment

■ Content indexing data before moving tocloud to meet Compliancerequirements and minimizesearch/retrieval times duringeDiscovery operations

■ Remote office backup directly to cloud-based storage

There are many aspects to securing datain the cloud. People who move applicationand email servers into the cloud are

concerned with spam, hackers andphishing attacks. Those who areconsidering the cloud to store data forlong-term archiving/retention or disasterrecovery are concerned with othersgaining access or visibility into vitalcorporate data. In healthcare,organizations are concerned withregulatory compliance.

SecurityThere is also physical security and thespectre of some nameless individualstrolling into a cloud service provider’sdata center and walking away with a jumpdrive full of intellectual property. Many ITdecision-makers are worried about all ofthe above.

Think about the data in terms of yourown data center. You have anti-virus andfiltering software tools that monitor andprevent email attacks as well asencryption and data storage technologiesto meet your needs for compliance,recovery and retention. And it’s a safe betthat cloud service providers have guardsprotecting their physical sites.

There are a few things that you shouldlook for, however, to ensure that your datais being protected in the cloud. Your cloudsolution should include:■ Embedded encryption that secures

data backup and archive data in-flightor stored within cloud storage

■ Integrated alerting, reporting, and dataverification functionality help ensurethat data has safely reached the cloudwithout the risk associated withmanual scripting or standalonegateway appliances

■ Native REST/HTTP integration to deliverseamless data and informationmanagement across on-site and cloud-based storage architectures

■ Integrated features like deduplicationand compression to enable efficientmovement of backup and archive dataacross a network for long-term cloudstorage

It is inevitable that IT organizations willturn to the cloud to keep pace withbusiness demands. It may take time toovercome the fear inherent in handingover control of your data to someone else,but consider this, there was a time whenusing a credit card online invoked thesame type of fear. Nobody wanted to befirst to dip their toe in the pool. Thetechnology needed to keep secure,protected and recoverable is here todayand adoption will grow. It’s just a matterof time. ■

THE ROLE OF middleware software as acrucial component of automatingbusinesses will continue in 2012, but theways in which it plays a part inautomating businesses will inevitablychange. New platforms, technologiesand ideologies continue to presentthemselves, and enterprises' needs anddemands for middleware are evolving.Judging from the advancements inMobile Computing in 2011, it is safe to

assume that the market will growexponentially in 2012. Developers aremoving from building small mobile appsfor iOS and Android, to full-scaleintegration with backend applications –integration that will tie into customerrelationship management, enterpriseresource management systems andmore. More people and applications willnot only be using mobile phones, butalso incorporating many types of remotedevices, including remote sensors.Middleware will be necessary to supportthese types of applications throughadvanced messaging and complex eventprocessing (CEP) technology.This year, the industry is likely to witnessthe intersection between middlewareand big data. CIOs and decision-makerslook at big data as a way to store andanalyze vast amounts of information.Middleware can help to leverage andextend that information into applicationsvia a more robust process and analyticsplatform.Cloud computing – the buzzword of 2011in the IT world – will continue to be huge.As Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS)solutions continue to mature, and theneed for PaaS solutions to support moreenterprise-related applicationscontinues to increase, cloud-based

solutions will grow beyond the coreapplication server to include othermiddleware capabilities such asintegration, workflow and processmanagement. This is becauseorganizations are eager take advantageof everything cloud has to offer – moreeffective economics, the shift tooperational expenses from capitalexpenses, increased ability to scale,quicker time to market, etc. As was thecase during the early stages of on-premise applications, a lot oforganizations have raised concernsregarding the development of cloudstandards. Although the market is stillyoung, standards will play a key role inits subsequent success.

Regional middleware trends highlighted

THE STC GROUP continues to maintain its top rank, with its global network powerful enough to makeit the main engine of communications and information technology sector in the Middle East.

The company is committed to brave the future challenges by providing up-to-date technologiesand services in the region to enable other regional operators to take advantage of its wide-spreadnetworks.

The Group has already established strategic partnerships to extend current agreements in Jordannotably on internet-support services. Similarly in Kuwait, it has signed a number of commercialagreements, in addition to completing a partnership agreement with Djibouti, wherein aninternational presence port (POP) would be established to provide a host of services, taking into

consideration the strategic location of Djibouti in Africa.Considered as the Eastern Gate of the continent as well as beinginterconnected with Jeddah by several maritime cables, theagreement achieves greater significance.

This new Djibouti-situated POP would help in reaching out tothe regional markets in Ethiopia and Somalia.

The agreement is in collaboration with the Sudanese Sudantelwhich aims at breaking into new markets, especially, in thesouthern Sudan.

Pertinently, the STC Group has managed to establish itself asthe regional leader through its achievements, like the expansionof four continental and international cables, where the Group hasstakes, an advantage that betrays other regional operators.

STC Group is a partner in more than 10 maritime cables across the region besides owning sparecapacities in other overseas cables. It commands huge capabilities to communicate with differentcountries in the world by providing world-class services.

BRIEFLYSTC – a powerful IT engine





ETISALAT, THE GULF'S largesttelecom firm, wants to acquire alicence in Libya or invest in one of theNorth African country's existingoperators, its chairman told Reuters.Libya has two state mobileoperators, Madar and Libyana, whileanother government-linked firm LapGreen Networks is active in severalAfrican countries including Ugandaand Ivory Coast."We have shown to the Libyangovernment our interest (in) thepossibility to participate in thedevelopment of the telecoms marketin Libya, either by a new licence oreven by operating or investing in oneof the existing mobile licences,"Mohammad Omran said on thesidelines of an event in Tripoli.When asked if Etisalat was in negotiations with the Libyagovernment on potentially buying into the telecoms sector,Omran said: "There are no official talks."Abu Dhabi-based Etisalat bid for Libya's third mobile licence in2009, but the licence was never awarded.The former monopoly, which is 60-per cent-owned by thegovernment, is active in 17 countries in Africa, the Middle Eastand Asia, yet its home market provides about three-quarters ofrevenue, according to its Q3 results.Etisalat's foreign acquisitions have been mixed. Recently, it

wrote off the US$827 mn value of itsoperation in India. But its SaudiArabian affiliate Mobily is among thetop picks for Gulf telecoms analysts.Meanwhile, Etisalat, has launched acommercial LTE network in thecountry. The service will offercustomers mobile LTE-basedbroadband using E398-LTE USBmodems, which it said were availableimmediately from Etisalat BusinessCentres and other outlets.The USB dongles can be picked upfree on contracts by signing up toEtisalat’s MyDataPlan ‘Ultra’ pack ona six-month or 12-month contract witha 20GB data allowance. The donglescan also be purchased contract freefor AED799 (US$218). Matthew Willsher, chief marketing

officer for Etisalat said in a statement that, “We are very excitedabout introducing the first real 4G (LTE) experience to ourcustomers in the UAE. The launch of the service and USBmodems follows user trials that showed exceptionallysatisfying performance. In coming months, our customers canexpect a range of LTE compatible data-centric wireless routersand tablets, and 4G enabled phones, as and when they areavailable in the market.”Etisalat has deployed 1000 base stations in the UAE and cover70 per cent of the population.

Etisalat looks to access Libyan market

MOROCCO'S IT SECTOR is growing at a double-digit pace. Internet access has expanded by three-quarters in 2011, while the mobile phone market increased by more than 14 per cent, according tothe National Telecoms Regulation Agency (ANRT).

The rapid expansion "necessitates a proportional investment in content and services to satisfy thegrowing demand" of internet and mobile phone users, according to Mobiblanc CEO MohamedBenboubker.

The kingdom boasts a total of 36.5mn mobile phone subscribers, representing a penetration rateof just over 113 per cent. The market, however, is still dominated by pre-paid packages. There are

only 1.5mn subscribers for post-paid deals,according to the ANRT.

The Internet sector has expanded thanks tothe growth of 3G. Out of three million internetsubscribers, more than 2.5mn have 3G access.Meanwhile, high-speed connection accountsfor just 18 per cent of the market.

The trend is taking a toll on the landlinemarket, which shrank by 4.8 per cent last year.

Another telling sign of the market'sdevelopment is e-commerce. There are nowover 200 online retail sites affiliated with theMaroc Telecommerce platform. Internet users

can purchase groceries, clothes, books, mobile phone credit, electronics, insurance and many otherproducts and services without leaving home.

More and more people opt for using credit cards. More than 6.7mn cards are held by Moroccans,which represents a 10 per cent increase from 2010. This year, Maroc Telecommerce is set to launch anew multi-channel payment platform.

TTHE MIDDLE EAST and North Africa (MENA) region traditionally has been a net exporter of the major portion of its production of primary Aluminium. The GCC is poised to become a primary aluminium production powerhouse with

the expectation that the region will contribute to over 13 per cent ofthe world’s aluminum production by 2013. The total primaryaluminium production in 2010 (Fig 1) stood at 3.17 Mn Metric Tonnes(MT) and reached 3.69 Mn MT in 2011 at 16 per cent growth over2010. The growth has primarily been due to Qatalum reaching fullcapacity of its first phase in 2011, after power outage issues in thesecond half of 2010, when production was halted resulting in losses.

Predominant end-user segments include construction followed byelectrical, industrial and packaging for the aluminium industry inthis region. The aluminium industry in the GCC is expected to see alarge growth over the next decade, which will put it among the topaluminium producers in the world. The Aluminium industry in GCCcontributes 4-12 per cent to the regional Gross Domestic Product(GDP). GCC contributes in a big way to the primary aluminium growthin the MENA region. The UAE, Oman, Bahrain and Qatar are all hometo some of the largest aluminium smelters in the world (Fig 2) . In2010, the aluminium industry provided over 11,000 directemployment opportunities and added another 30,000 jobs to theindustry through supporting small and medium sized businesses.

According to Frost & Sullivan, growth of the primary Aluminiumindustry in the GCC will outperform the rest of MENA. Key GCCcountries like the KSA, Qatar, Oman and UAE (Abu Dhabi) will haveincreased primary production either due to new commissioning ofaluminium smelters or phase two expansions of their existingcapacities. Frost & Sullivan also state that investments in the GCC

Aluminium industry are currently estimated at around US$30 billionand may reach as much as US$55 billion by 2020.

Challenges and OpportunitiesHazardous waste generated from aluminium production is aconcern, as currently GCC has no means to treat it. However, GCC isactively looking to secure third party services to cater to the region’ssix smelters and effectively treat this waste in the coming 3-5 years.

Political instability in the region especially in Bahrain and Omanhas served as a cause for reluctance in new investments especiallyin downstream production.

The transformation of scrap into recycled aluminium alloysrequires approximately five per cent of the energy input needed toproduce primary aluminium from bauxite. This phenomenon iscatching up in the MENA region; as a result many downstreamaluminium players and primary Aluminium smelters are taking upgreener initiatives to reduce their carbon footprints. It is expectedthat in the next 10 years the secondary aluminium market in the GCCwould be a key contributor to the recycling Industry and will createemployment opportunities.

Overall Strategic ConclusionThe Aluminium industry in the MENA region is expected to grow in theshort and medium terms (two to five years) provided the primaryaluminium smelting capacities are commissioned, as per plan. TheAluminium downstream industries will have a great scope to localiseproducts which are currently imported from a few regular importpartners. The ability to deal with constant fluctuations in LondonMetal Exchange (LME) prices of aluminium would be the greatestchallenge going forward, along with the economics of scale, regularsupply of feedstock and environmental issues. The substitution threatof Aluminium from various metals and materials will continue but maynot be a huge threat, as major plastic and metal companies areinvesting in research and development inclined on weight reductionstrategies including automotive, industrial applications, refrigerationand chillers, etc. Key countries in the GCC region where Aluminiumdownstream development would increase are KSA, UAE, Oman andQatar as they are surging investments backed by Aluminium smeltersand Family Investment groups in the Middle East. ■

UUSE OF SPECIAL fire-resistantglass within purpose-madeglazing systems can make amajor contribution to the safety-

integrity of any modern building, even ifonly as the result of refurbishment.However all elements of the completesystem (individual panel or aperture) mustbe compatible and approved by thedesigner/architect, the responsible fireauthority(ies) and the insurance companyappointed, right down to details such asthe dimensions of glazing beads and edgecoverings as well as all the materialsthemselves.

With any major newbuild project a fullrisk assessment is normally carried outbefore the construction is approved, and allaspects of fire safety, including the extentto which glazed elements like doors,windows and internal partitions will slowits spread, have to be included in this.

A Fire Certificate is then normally issuedafter independent inspection of thecompleted structure; this covers thewhole building, not just the resistancecomponents. Each of these needs its ownperformance assessment report before itis selected. GCC suppliers routinely adviseon this.

Types of glass that may be approved forfire resistance purposes include someceramics, thermally-strengthened sodalime silicates, resin and gel laminates aswell as various specified special 'safety'materials. All need to be fitted withinspecially designed frames or doors, andsuppliers throughout the Gulf advise onthe construction of these as a matter of

course. Their actual performance willdepend on the type of glass used, thepane layout including orientation (verticaletc.) and dimensions of the individualelements and of the complete system inwhich they are installed.

Equally importantDifferent materials will need differentfitting instructions e.g. the width of edgecover that should be provided to providemaximum resistance to the spread of fire.Glaziers never make the material fit tootightly within the frame, and this isespecially important with toughenedmaterials including conventional wiredproducts.

Note that standard toughened glass isgenerally not suitable for fire resistancepurposes because it cannot stand up tothermal shock adequately. And thatdifferent materials need to be finished

with purpose-designed details such asedge coverings, beads and seals.

Throughout the installation process, allthese details should be checked againstthe specifications and for quality ofworkmanship. Substitution and “mix andmatch” are never acceptable whenresistance to the spread of fire, andadequate insurance cover, are theobjectives.

purposes



Physical impactSpecific questions are often asked about the use of fire-resistant glass within fire doors that are fabricated locally outof standard timber sections, an important employment-creating artisan activity wherever cities are growing as fast –and as tall – as they are in the Gulf today. The burning qualitiesof the various timbers imported here vary greatly of course, andshould therefore be checked and specified (including coatingtreatments) by the system supplier – there is also a limit to thesize and thickness of individual panes of fire-resistant glassthat can be safely incorporated in such a door, which willdepend in part on the type of glazing system employed and inpart on the extent of physical impact that the product can beexpected to meet in a crisis situation – and in everyday usebeforehand, too.

TestedDifferent glass materials have different impact ratings and theshape of acceptable openings to maintain these are usuallydefined by the supplier. Many will only supply finished units.

In general metal framing systems are acceptable for use withfire-resistant glass materials but only if they are speciallyfabricated as part of a standard glazing system; local metalworkers should never be allowed to substitute run-of-mill (i.e.not fire resistant) frames or components.

Within the Gulf so much highrise newbuild activity is nowtaking place that materials often run short and some glasssuppliers are willing to sell on a supply-only basis; such materialsmust always be system-fitted into proper frames that incorporatethe seals and beads that have been both tested and approved forthat particular system and material.

Design processTest evidence of performance of the complete system mustalways be seen and all fire-resistant glass materials should beincorporated into approved complete systems only. This isparticularly important when a refurbishment or upgradeprogramme is being carried out; it is the continued integrity of thecomplete fire-resistance system including the condition of any re-used aperture frames and doors that matters.

In conclusion, fire resistance is the result of a design processthat is quite separate from insulation for comfort or energy-conservation purposes. Nevertheless, a good designer willensure that the materials complement one another in this respectwherever this is possible.

And finally, fire-resistant glazing systems are always installedas barriers in order to prevent the spread of fire, especially inescape/access routeways within the building. They are thereforerated in terms of the time they can buy. Fire prevention is aseparate but equally important subject. ■

PERKINS LAUNCHED THE 1600 Series Electropak diesel engine for theelectric power market at Middle East Electricity 2012. Designed tomeet key market nodes, the new line up fills the gap between thecompany’s current 1300 and 2000 Series ranges. The 1600 SeriesElectropak family comprises a range of full authority electronic control,turbocharged, air-to-air charge-cooled engines that have beendeveloped to provide prime and standby power.

The six cylinder, 9.3 litre range offers outputs up to 300kVA (240kWe) prime power and 330 kVA (264 kWe) standby power at 1500 rpm– both key nodes – though the intention is to release a 350kVA(280kWe) standby version later in the year.

For OEMs and genset packagers the key benefits include thecombination of higher power density and load acceptance, which effectively means that the 1600 Seriescan achieve outputs normally associated with much bigger displacement engines, while offering a spacesaving opportunity during installation.

The tropical radiator, which is fitted as standard, ensures that there is high ambient clearance at even thehighest temperatures, making it suitable for applications such as supersound canopies.

With little or no derate, the unit can produce its maximum output virtually anywhere in the world. Itsglobal acceptability has also been enhanced through the simultaneous launch of versions for both non-regulated and EU IIIa territories. This versatility has been further increased with the inclusion of switchablemodels which both reduces parts inventory and supports the needs of the rental market.

Built for durable and economic use, its operating and maintenance costs are reduced, thanks to its frugalconsumption of fuel – around 200g/kWhr – while whole life costs are enhanced by the 500 hours serviceintervals and Perkins standard warranty.

MEE Review43

FLUKE CORPORATION HAS introduced new Fluke 430 Series II three-phase power quality analysers that are the first to use a patentedalgorithm to measure energy wasted in electrical systems andcalculate the cost.

The 430 Series II helps facilities reduceelectrical power consumption andimprove the performance and lifespan ofelectro-mechanical equipment byproviding the ROI justification to mitigatepower quality distortion.

With the new, patented Unified Powerfunction of the 430 Series II, electricians,utility technicians, electrical engineers,field service technicians, and energyconsultants can automatically determinehow much power is being wasted andcalculate exactly what the extra consumption costs with a singlehandheld tool. Unified Power marks the first time that any test toolhas provided the ability to automatically quantify the energy wastedby harmonics and unbalance, and by inputting the utility ratestructure, the user can even calculate the monetary cost of thewasted energy.

In particular, the new analysers allow facilities to assess theimpact of new energy-efficient, electronically-driven systems fromlighting to motor controls to HVAC. While these new modelsconsume less energy as individual installations, they increase thelevel of power quality disturbance in the overall electrical system,

increasing waste energy due to harmonics and reducing the totalpotential energy savings. They calculate the monetary cost of thatwaste energy.

The 430 Series II Inverter Efficiencyfunction simultaneously measures the inputand output power of inverters in solarsystems, wind turbines and uninterruptedpower supplies, allowing the operator to seehow much electricity the inverter itself isconsuming and whether it is operatingefficiently. The measurements enableoperators to adjust settings or make a casefor a replacement unit.

The updated 430 Series II models featurethree new measurement functions as wellas hardware, software and firmware

improvements. New models have up to 32 GB (8 GB standard)memory, a swappable SD memory card and USB connectivity forlonger power and energy logging and faster data download.

The 435 model includes PowerWave, a “fast capture” system thatdisplays waveforms and half cycle RMS voltage and current values infull detail so motor and generator operators can measure theinteraction during switching operations. This allows facility andutility service electricians, electrical contractors, and generatorsuppliers to easily gather measurements with a single tool for loadprofiling, to prevent motor/drive/load mismatches, and for motorand generator commissioning and start-up testing.

LAMPRELL SUCCESSFULLY LAUNCHED the Fred.Olsen Windcarrier Brave Tern, the first windfarm installation vessel of its size to be built inthe region.

With a transport weight of 12,200 tonnes, thisload out which took place yesterday, is also theheaviest vessel land move ever to take place inthe Middle East and one of a few worldwide. Atdelivery, scheduled for Q2 of 2012, the BraveTern will weigh 14,800 tonnes.

The Brave Tern, one of two vessels contractedto the Group in 2010, is a GustoMSC NG-9000design self-elevating and self-propelled offshore

wind turbine installation vessel with an overalllength of 131.72 metres, deck area of around3,200 square metres, four 80 metre self-elevating legs and an 800 tonne ‘wrap around

the leg’ crane at 24 metreoutreach (102 metre over deck).The Brave Tern canaccommodate up to 80 people.

Nigel McCue, Chief ExecutiveOfficer, Lamprell said: “Thismilestone is significant to theGroup as it once againdemonstrates the quality of ourproject management in meetingkey project milestones, which isof particular importance giventhat the Brave Tern is thelargest wind farm installation

vessel to be built and loaded out in the region."Commenting about the load out, Tor Erik

Andreassen, Managing Director of Fred. OlsenWindcarrier said: “Two years after signing thecontract with Lamprell, the move of the firstvessel from the construction site and into hernatural wet environment is an important eventmarking a large step towards a successfuldelivery of our new build.”

TTHE RAPID EXPANSION of railway projects across theMENA region has not just seen thousands of kilometresof tracks being laid down in Algeria, Saudi Arabia andOman, but also the implementation of the latest

communication technology, enabling the railway networks torun more safely and efficiently. Kapsch CarrierCom completedthe acquisition of Nortel’s GSM business in April 2010 whicheffectively gave Kapsch access to Nortel’s GSM-R (GlobalSystem for Mobile Communications-Railway) business globally.

“It is important to understand that Kapsch is now the owner ofthe whole GSM-R product portfolio, which allows us to pursueand continue to evolve our technology,” said Michael Clement,VP Railways.

The acquisition enabled Kapsch to capture key customers,such as Network Rail in the UK, Deutsche Bahn in Germany andRFF in France. The 1,759 km track in Algeria, where the companyis implementing GSM-R end-to-end solutions, forms thecompany’s first foray into the MENA region.

”We are the first company to work on a project for newsignalling and telecommunication activity in Africa. Algeriapresents a critical customer for us and the dimension of theproject is as big as the one in France. We are providing Algeriawith the most up-to-date technology,” said Clement. “IP for thecore and based on our BTS 9K and 6K. We are also able toprovide GPRS.”

Clement added that the system is being implemented byANESRIF, before going on to discuss the various challengesof bringing this technology to the Middle East for the veryfirst time.

“Algeria was our first experience in a very difficultenvironment with high temperatures and vast desert areas. Itwas interesting for us to do that and also very educative,” hesaid. “The interesting thing is that normally we introduce GSM-Rwhere there is a high concentration of people, but in Algeria wehad to implement GSM-R around the entire track. In a lot ofcases this is in areas that are unpopulated and do not have anykind of infrastructure.”

“Kapsch is actually the first company worldwide which hasrealised such a project under such harsh environmentalcircumstances. We are becoming specialists for extreme

environmental challenges. Here in North Africa temperaturescan reach up to 58 degrees.”

Kapsch CarrierCom carried out the first ever GSM-R call inAfrica at the end of last year, a considerable achievement forthe company. The call was made by the Minister ofCommunications between Algiers and Bechar, in the south ofthe country.

Kapsch CarrierCom’s focus extends across the region. Thecompany is involved in all tenders for Etihad Railway, has beeninvolved in Saudi Arabia since the start (as Nortel), has ongoingtenders in Morocco and is in advanced discussions with Egypt.The company also opened an office in Abu Dhabi recently andsees high potential in Libya and Tunisia.

“We are now present in this area as we are convinced of thegreat potential in this region,” said Clement. “We are involvedin interesting conversations with Saudi Arabia, Qatar andOman, who have decided to go for the GSM-R standard and whoshow genuine interest in implementing state-of-the-arttechnology. In North Africa, the decision on the technology hasalready been made. It was decided it would be GSM-R.”

Clement pointed out that an important aspect of the regionalrailway boom is that various projects are starting from scratch.Employing wireless technology is a smart and more cost-effective move. In contrast to Europe, where the market hasevolved slowly over time, the Middle East presents theopportunity to employ the latest technology immediately,without going through periods of trial and error.

Clement said that the outlook for railway projects this year isbright. “2012 will be a major year for projects to be started,” hesaid. “In North Africa and the Gulf countries, these projects areidentified and are on their way.” ■

IIN ORDER TO meet projectrequirements and customerexpectations, PERI offersstandardised, rentable system

components, construction-compliantconnecting means and supportingstructures to deliver cost-effectiveformwork for the respective structure.

With well-trained design engineers, aswell as continuous site supervision alongwith large stock capacity, PERI is able tosupport any construction project to ensureits timely completion.

With PERI in the UAE for over 10 years, alarge variety of bridge projects have beenrealised. Among these is the NorthernRing Road Project, located in Al Ain, whichwill connect the city to the Emirate’stransport network via bridges, tunnels,and intersections. The constructionincludes a new dual carriage way, a three-lane flyover bridge, three underpasses,the building of Wadi Bridges and theupgrading of the existing ring road. The

contractor is Saif Bin Darwish Company.The PERI systems fulfil the needs of the

construction company for flexibility andhigh productivity.

The formwork solution for thesuperstructure is realised with GT 24formwork girders, SRU steel walers andSLS spindles. This construction could beaccurately adapted to the structure’sgeometry. PD 8 shoring towers supportthe formwork, they are extremely cost-effective as large units and for highclearances.

One of the largest and most challengingbridge projects in the region has been thelandmark Saadiyat Bridge. It connects AbuDhabi City and Saadiyat Island – whichlies about 500 m off the coast. With alength of 1,455 m and an impressive widthof 60 m, the construction is one of thewidest bridges in the world. Eight forelandpiers in the west and a total of eleven onSaadiyat itself serve to support the threepre-stressed concrete hollow boxes withspans ranging between 45 m and 135 m.

The main bridge has a span of 200 mand is carried by two V-shaped, 20 m high

identical sets of piers per section. Theformwork and scaffolding solution for theindividual supports, with inclinations ofmore than 27°, consists of two sets ofVARIO GT 24 side formwork, a forwardinclined VARIO formwork element withintegrated working platforms as well as areverse-inclined raised formwork unit. Dueto the high concreting loads, this wascarried on PERI UP shoring.

The bridge piers were constructedalternatively in four climbing steps withconcreting cycle heights of 4.70 m as wellas by 2.44 m in an outward direction ineach case due to the pier inclination. ThePERI concept allowed the supportingframe construction to be pulled outwardson the steel girders after striking hadbeen completed as though being guidedalong rails.

For efficient realization of the requiredsupporting and platform levels, threetower modules each with a 2.00 m baseand a 4.65 m extension height could bevertically coupled together.

Connections were carried out with thetime-saving PERI section spindle and theextension units could therefore beaccurately adjusted to the requiredheight. Through the extensivelydimensioned moving units, it waspossible to construct the total of 48casting segments with only four sets offormwork extremely cost -effectively. ■

TTHE SECOND EDITION of The Big 5 Saudi, the spin-off fromthe long running and hugely successful Big 5 Gulfregional event in Dubai, will be open in the southern cityof Jeddah from 10-13 March. This bustling and well linked

port is a major industrial centre in its own right, a key part of theKingdom’s visionary planning to bring the full benefits of energyproduction, including sustainable construction, to the vicinity ofthe Holy Cities.

Under the patronage of HRH Prince Mansour Bin Mutaib BinAbdulaziz, this event is again being fully supported by the localChamber of Commerce/Industry, with major commercialsponsorship coming from Emirates Steel and Al Arabiya.

As with the parent event in the UAE, Big 5 Saudi will focus on allaspects of building and construction. A special feature of thissecond event, expected to be larger than last year, will be a focuson training for building designers and practitioners, specifically inconcrete repair and LEED-certificated sustainable design andconstruction practice (special Zone and Workshop details below).

ImmenseSaid local Chamber deputy chairman Mazen Batterjee of theinaugural event on the Red Sea coast in 2011: “Such an importantexhibition plays an essential role in delivering the immenseinfrastructure projects taking place currently. Next year, I expectthe exhibition to grow more.”

Indeed it shows every sign of doing so, with exhibitor bookingsexceeding 400 at the time of writing as against just over 300 lastyear. More than 9,000 individual business visitors attended thelaunch event and more are expected from neighbouring countriesthis year when a special outdoor display/demonstration area isbeing used at the Jeddah Forums & Events Centre.

Globally famousMost of the building product categories, for which Big 5 eventshave become globally famous over more than 30 years, will be ondisplay, with few export manufacturers in any other part of theworld able to justify turning down an opportunity to exhibit insuch a critical sales region.

But to encourage more local building professionals through thedoors, a special series of information-cum-networking sessionsare being arranged for Jeddah this year, each in its own quietdedicated area.

These are:The Concrete Zone – incorporating a special USA Pavilion butexhibitors from many other countries like Germany – which is beingset up to explain to local professionals just some of the advantages ofthe many new products and materials that the industry has beencoming up with in recent years. These include a wide range of newadmixtures designed to improve the flow and hardening properties ofvarious forms of concrete made with Gulf raw materials.

Also new types of quick-erecting formwork will be shown alongwith a wide range of machinery for precision batching of drysupplies, producing durable and attractive blocks and tiles(including small-scale manufacturers) and other structuralelements, and testing after the required period for cure.


Big 5’s new Saudi Arabian offshoot is backin Jeddah this year, bringing to a hugelyimportant region a full range ofinternational building/constructionproducts and services from national,regional and international sources.Training workshops are being offered forthe first time.

Concrete Repair Workshop – a new training programme is beingoffered this year which has been specially commissioned frompractitioners Concrete Repairs UK. Specifically prepared for thehot and saline atmosphere of sites on the Red Sea coast, this hasbeen designed to fully inform local professionals of the latesttechniques and ideas that can be used to prevent concrete decayin the first place – corrosion of rebars is the most common cause,along with cracking and rainwater ingress and fungal growth –and to repair it permanently and properly when this hashappened.

The Facilities Management Zone – dedicated to the efficientpre-construction design and post-completion day-to-dayoperation of a wide variety of buildings and infrastructurefacilities, this dedicated exhibition area is being provided at Big 5Saudi because of the expected boom in all aspects of modern FMpractice in the burgeoning Kingdom – now an establishedprofession in its own right.

This will be where building commissioners, owners and otheroperators can learn how to make their very costly structuresperform optimally, effectively and at lowest cost, with expectedlifespans being extended at the same time.

Finally, the brand-new LEED 201 Core Concepts & StrategiesWorkshop is being offered to all visitors to learn the very latestabout sustainable green building principles and products.

Standing for ‘Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design’ US-derived LEED standards are rapidly becoming internationallyaccepted as the benchmark for environmentally responsible, highperformance ‘green’ buildings that both function profitably andare healthy to work in (more details of the principles and wherethey can be seen in the Gulf at www.usgbc.org/LEED/). ■

WWITH GROWTH ESTIMATED at 6-7 per cent last year (itstalled in 2009) and the world’s second largestcurrent account balance (and third in forex and goldresources), Saudi Arabia is certainly a country

which is going places fast. And since WTO membership wasfinally achieved at the end of 2005, the energy-dominatedeconomy has been diversifying even faster; now it is a majorsupplier of a wide range of industrial merchandise to other GCCcountries in particular.

It all adds up to the Gulf’s largest single construction market byfar, fuelled by central government schemes such as the Economic


Construction activity in the Kingdom’sEastern Province has been acceleratingwhile most of the rest of the world hasslowed down. The 14th edition of theBuildex exhibition will be there in March tomeet the demand.

New opportunities in theregion’s largest market

www.saudibuildex.com


Cities programme (including King Abdullah and Jazan ECs, bothpencilled in at US$27 billion, along with mega-industrials such asthe NOC’s Yanbu Export Refinery Project, to cost US$10 billion), andmajor infrastructure schemes designed to boost power generationand water supplies and the telecoms facilities needed to knit it alltogether. New supportive legislation on mortgages, and last year’sunexpected boost to the low-medium cost housing sector hascertainly helped. And all underpinned by a currency which seems tocontinue unperturbed against the dollar whatever happenselsewhere in the financial markets, a level of incoming foreign directinvestment that far exceeds movement the other way, and a soundbanking system.

Of course, the underlying reasons for some this positive activityare not so rosy, with the authorities in Riyadh concerned about suchissues as unacceptable levels of youth unemployment, shortages ofindustrial training facilities generally, and the perennial problem ofhow to compensate for declining levels in the underlying aquifers.Being OPEC’s ‘swing’ producer is not an easy role, either.

Project expansionMuch of the construction frenzy that free-to-enter Buildex 2012 isdesigned to satisfy arises from the pressing need to solve theseproblems while the energy balance remains so much in theKingdom’s favour.

So, 18-21 March is an excellent time for Dhahran InternationalExhibitions Co in association with Italian specialists IES Srl to bestaging this year’s edition of the long established BuildexInternational Building & Construction Exhibition.

Once again the splendidly equipped Dhahran InternationalExhibitions Center will be the venue; full details including acomprehensive event brochure can be accessed atwww.saudibuildex.com; phone contact numbers are given below.Dammam is of course the business and administration centre of theKSA’s main energy producing province as well as being one of theGulf’s key airline hubs.

BuoyancyThe last Buildex easily drew in more than 20,000 visitors to seethe products and services of well over 200 individual exhibitors.Following recent announcements about project expansions andnew schemes altogether, this year’s event is certain to be a majordraw for even more international companies with interesting andproblem-solving new products to show – and no otherinternational markets in any way equal to the Kingdom’sbuoyancy and scale in which to display them.

Most are aware of the ready access to and from this expo centrethat is available for businessmen in neighbouring states such asKuwait, Bahrain and Abu Dhabi, to and fro in a day with no visasbeing required for GCC citizens of course.

Technical Review is pleased to have been asked to serve asOfficial Publication for this major nation-building event in theKingdom’s energy province. ■

BBY INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENT,the ‘Big Three’ constructionmachinery trade fairs take placespringtime in successive years.

From 16-21 April it’s the turn of Intermat inParis; next year (15-21 April) it will beBAUMA in Germany, and from 4-8 March2014 CONEXPO-CON/AGG in Las Vegas.Few equipment suppliers can afford tomiss any of these key construction events.

What is special about Intermat is that ithas now become annually established inAbu Dhabi, too, with co-organisersComexposium staging Intermat MiddleEast from 8-10 October next in associationwith Clarion Events ME2. This spin-offevent will be co-located at ADNEC withArabian Construction Week.

The parent exhibition is always co-ordinated in Paris by the French equipmentmanufacturers’ associations CISMA(contractors’ plant in general) and SEIMAT(suppliers of equipment for the civils,mining/quarrying, construction and hoistsectors). Intermat has been successfullyrunning since 1988.

Most interestAll three of these rotated core events aresimply huge. The last edition of Intermatitself (2009) drew in more than 184,000visitors, one-third of them coming fromoutside France, with a significantcontingent (12 per cent) from MENA andthe rest of Africa. Regionally, most interestwas expressed predictably from Algeriaand Morocco. More than 1500 exhibitorslook likely this year, once again more than

two-thirds of them originating outsideFrance.

It’s always difficult to estimate how thedifferent internal spaces (plus a largeexternal display area) within an event likethis will be allocated category-wise, butthe breakdown in Paris last time was asfollows: earthmoving equipment 38 percent; components, ancillary equipmentand accessories 15 per cent; materialslifting and handling machinery 12 percent; concrete plant, formwork andscaffolding supplies nine per cent; drillingand boring equipment eight per cent; roadbuilding seven per cent; raw materialsextraction/processing six per cent;transport vehicles three per cent; andgeneral engineering andprofessional/technical services two percent. This breakdown makes it clear that

this really is the best place to see thelatest crop of heavy-plant range additionsanywhere this year, including up-and-coming new suppliers from China likely.

A special new feature in 2012 will be a30,000m2 demonstration area which isadded alongside, with promised ‘livelyperformances’ by a range of backhoes,mini excavators, loaders and graders. Weinterpret that as high jinx withearthmovers.

Major locationThe French equipment industries – allsizes, all categories – form a key part ofthe European Construction IndustryFederation, usually known by its French-language initials CECE. Roughly 30 percent of the global industries’ output isnow in the hands of this umbrella group’s1,200 members, with a major slice of thislocated in metropolitan France. This keymanufacturing country is also a majorlocation for multinational manufacturers,companies of the size and status of J ICase and John Deere, to locate Europeanoperations, usually manufacturingfacilities that specialise in particularproduct ‘families’.

Of course, Paris is a top attraction forvisitors in its own right. The French capitalis a tourism centre of the first order, with arange of cultural, recreational and

accommodation facilities that are secondto none. France is a leader in many otherforms of engineering, including railwaysand nuclear power. It is also one of themost well connected cities on earth, withparticularly good services by all means toEU neighbours, and by air to the businesscentres of North Africa and the MiddleEast. It is also the headquarters of a large

number of international organisations likethe OECD and International EnergyAgency. Following recent diplomatic anddefence developments, relationships withthe Gulf states are particularly strong.

In short, few Intermat visitors from theArab world are likely to have anything but aplenitude of other business and other callsto make while so conveniently located

close by the heart of the European Union.The Villepinte exhibition centre itself

is conveniently located near to the well-served Roissy CdG Airport, and fromother metropolitan nodes – mostinternational visitors want to havemeetings beyond the exhibition doors –it is readily served by the excellent RERrapid-transit system – the inspiration ofso much light rail planning in the Gulf.Paris Nord is also well served by thehigh-speed TGV rail network, theperformance and details of which wereso closely studied when Saudi Arabia’sbrand-new lines were being planned.This now serves most corners ofEurope’s largest country.

The experienced event organisers pointout that Intermat in Paris this year is the‘Key event of the construction industry in2012’; certainly for Gulf readers outsidethe near-abroad that is. It will also have anotably ‘Green’ theme, fully in line with somany of the Gulf’s sustainable BuildingCodes today. Officially described asshowing ‘Equipment and Techniques forConstruction and Materials Industries’,this three-yearly event cannot be missedby anyone who needs to see what’s latestand best. ■

This demand is pressuring theengineering and construction industry toaccelerate as never before to meet thechallenge, putting their efficiency andrisk management processes to the test.KPMG 2012 Global ConstructionSurvey, The Great Global InfrastructureOpportunity, surveyed 161 engineeringand construction companies around theworld with revenues ranging fromUS$250mn to more than US$5 billion.52 per cent of respondents were fromEMEA, 31 per cent from the Americasand 17 per cent from the Asia-Pacificregion.Nearly 40 per cent of respondents fromEurope, Middle East and Africa (EMEA),believe that the energy sector will havethe biggest impact on revenues.Second behind energy wereroads/bridges at 27 per cent followedby residential at 25 per cent.While 49 per cent of respondentsexpect their backlogs will grow from 5per cent to over 15 per cent in the nextyear, 71 per cent of respondents cite

economic uncertainty as their biggestongoing concern followed by a skillsshortage (31 per cent) and thirdly,government deficits (30 per cent).Meanwhile 62 per cent said that theyexpect margins on current bids toremain unchanged from their currentbacklog. “The future for the infrastructureindustry in the region lies in optimisingcosts, streamlining supply chains,improving IT systems and growththrough mergers and acquisitions,”

KPMG partner and head of building,construction and real estate, MiddleEast and South Asia region,Wirtschaftspruefer Ernst Weber, said.Cost cutting still remains a challengefor companies as well, withorganisational culture seen to beculprit for implementing the cuts for 61per cent of respondents globally, and78 per cent in the Americas. And asurprising 17 per cent of respondentsglobally said that cost reduction wasnot a priority at all.

The need for infrastructure development is at an all-time high: KPMG

TRIMBLE AND MANITOWOC Cranes, a part of The Manitowoc Company, Inc., announced that theyhave signed an agreement to collaborate on the development of solutions that can harnessprecise positioning technology, wireless communications and comprehensive softwarecapabilities to enhance productivity in the construction lifting industry. Trimble and Manitowocintend to develop solutions that will transform the way in which crane operations and informationare managed on a construction site. By combining the strengths of Trimble and ManitowocCranes, the companies intend to develop a solution tailored for the lifting industry that providesreal time, centimeter-level positioning data for multiple cranes working on a construction site. Thesolution would be able to measure crane position in absolute coordinates using rugged, easy toinstall, non-contact sensors that can be installed on both fixed and mobile cranes. It is plannedthat the in-cab displays of cranes that are fitted with the developed solution will permit operatorsto view the site, multiple working crane zones, forbidden zones, target locations and other siteinformation. The companies also expect to develop an ‘Intelligent Environment’ database for their

solutions capable of receiving constantupdates of data from Building InformationModeling (BIM) tools and other sitesensors working in tandem. In addition, ananticipated feature of the solution wouldenable a user to program an alarm or evenhalt crane operation upon detection ofunplanned work activity on theconstruction site. To enhance jobsiteawareness and management, a wirelesslocal area network (WLAN) will share thecrane position information across theconstruction site.

Roads and bridges will be a major focus of futureinfrastructure projects

RMD KWIKFORM HAS introducedspecialist composite bridge falseworkproduct Paraslim into the Omaniconstruction market for the widening ofthe Athabia Flyover in Muscat. Havingdeveloped and utilised Paraslim acrossthe globe, RMD Kwikform has introducedthe system into the Omani market for thefirst time.RMD Kwikform recognised the need for afalsework and formwork system thatspecialised in the construction of compositebridges in a region of the world where anever-evolving infrastructure demands aneffective, safe and efficient method ofbridge construction. The introduction ofParaslim to the market effectively meets theneeds of the Omani market .Faced with the task of widening theAthabia Flyover on the Sultan QaboosRoad, a major road in Oman’s capital cityMuscat, building contractors Larsen &Toubro Oman LLC approached RMDKwikform for a solution that could meetthe tight programme times and safetyconcerns of the project.Commenting on the reasons for bringingParaslim to the Middle East and its use onthe Athabia Flyover project, Steve Phillips,Resident Director – Oman said: “Paraslimis ideal for this kind of bridge work wherethe existing flyover is widened to

accommodate an additional lane to easethe traffic flow. There is live traffic overand under the bridge and it is practicallyimpossible to close the traffic below to putup scaffolding. Paraslim maintainssimplicity in its application whileovercoming complex engineeringobstacles, efficiently keeping projects ontime and on budget.

“As well as its simplistic application andtimesaving capabilities, Paraslimembodies innovation towards site safetywith the ability to be preassembled offsiteand only brought on site whenpreparations have been completed,leading to a cleaner and clearer site.”RMD Kwikform was able to supply abespoke Paraslim system with the abilityto overcome the technical constraint ofshoring the Athabia Flyover without

relying on a grounded support systemthat would obstruct the flow of traffictravelling underneath it while the projectis underway.RMD Kwikform Sales Engineer BellphineCampbell commented: “For this projectRMD Kwikform specially designed a brandnew component to tackle the unavoidableproblem of up-lift of the paraslim decking.The Paraslim Tie Guide Channel is fixedwith the Paraslim Bracket cast to preventthe uplift of the platform due to wind. Wesold a solution rather than a product asusing Paraslim has reduced the cost forthe contractor in terms of labour,equipment, traffic diversion & time.”The modified Paraslim falsework hasbeen a success for the project allowingLarsen & Toubro Oman LLC to pursue theproject as planned, casting the cantileverslab without the need for shoring from theground, overcoming a major obstacle inthe project through an innovativeengineering solutionMr. James D’Souza – ConstructionManager of Larsen & Toubro Omancommented: “The use of Paraslim hasbeen so successful that despite its size,the Athabia Flyover development hasbecome a showcase project in Muscat andhas generated a lot of interest throughOman and the construction industry.
